By the late 1960s, Howard Cosell had, in effect, typecast himself out of the lower classes of the sports-casting realm. He had become too big for not-quite- important events and was relied on by ABC ...

“Champions aren't made in the ring, they are merely recognized there. What you cheat on in the early light of the morning will show up in the ring under the bright lights.”

"Ali told me in the ring, ‘You can’t beat me — I’m your lord!’ I just told him, 'Lord, you’re in the wrong place tonight.'" Heading into what was dubbed “The Fight of the Century” in 1971, “Smokin’ Joe” Frazier was man and obstacle. He was power incarnate. And he knew that first clash with Muhammad Ali was more than the biggest, most coveted boxing event of all time. For him, it was personal. That night at Madison Square Garden, Frazier made himself heard.

The heavyweight great on Ali, race, how to be a man, and why there's nothing wrong with an ass whuppin'
